Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to review and characterize research-based music assessments that might be used to guide and assist teachers and students in transforming their attitudes and perceptions, ability to express their ideas and concepts during the assessment process openly. This study employed descriptive and autoethnographic methods to elicit information about current conditions and practices through the library approach and literature review. The identified music assessment techniques were used to determine how well students comprehend important points in a session. It includes the Music Concept Memory Exercise and Instrumental and Vocal Schematic Processing for music lesson instructions and the Five-Letter Name Pitch Memory Test and Three-Chord Familiarization Assessment for basic instrumental music instructions. They are used as a core component deliberately designed to expose classroom teachers and prospective teachers to the essentials for effective instructional practices. Effective evaluation ensures that learners’ knowledge, understanding, and skills are transferred effectively in future contexts.

Abstract

Water service disruptions require public relations personnel to coordinate uncertain technical information with customers’ immediate communication needs. This study examines how disruption information is verified, translated, approved, distributed, and revised at Perumda Tugu Tirta, Malang, Indonesia, during January–April 2026. Using an organizational ethnographic framework, the analysis draws on 11 supplied interview accounts spanning public relations, customer service, technical operations, digital communication, and organizational documentation. Reflexive thematic analysis and reconstruction of three reported disruption episodes identified five themes: maintaining information uncertainty, translating technical updates into customer-relevant messages, synchronizing internal and external communication, balancing accessibility with documentation, and incorporating customer feedback into recovery assessments. Findings revealed collaborative coordination alongside information gaps, inconsistent message versions, and differing interpretations of service restoration. The study proposes an iterative communication process integrating technical verification and customer feedback to improve disruption management. It contributes a process-oriented understanding of public relations coordination under operational uncertainty. However, findings remain limited to the supplied interview accounts, requiring further verification of source provenance and observational triangulation before claims of completed organizational ethnography can be established.

Abstract

Community arts festivals in Yogyakarta rely heavily on voluntary labor, yet the simultaneous contributions of leadership coordination and volunteer commitment to perceived operational effectiveness remain underexamined. This cross-sectional explanatory survey enrolled 180 volunteers and committee members across 15 community arts festivals in five kemantren of Yogyakarta City between November 2025 and March 2026. Participants completed a 24-item instrument assessing leadership coordination (LC), volunteer commitment (VC), and perceived operational effectiveness (OE) on a five-point Likert scale, with satisfactory internal consistency across all constructs (LC: α = 0.877; VC: α = 0.861; OE: α = 0.852). Pearson correlations indicated moderate positive associations between LC and OE (r = 0.525, p < .001) and between VC and OE (r = 0.465, p < .001). A random-intercept multilevel regression model was applied to accommodate the nested structure of respondents within festival clusters. After adjusting for age, festival experience, and volunteer role, both LC (B = 0.406, SE = 0.055, p < .001) and VC (B = 0.326, SE = 0.055, p < .001) were independently and positively associated with perceived operational effectiveness. Festival-level variance accounted for approximately 24.8% of outcome variation (ICC = 0.248), underscoring the necessity of cluster-adjusted analysis. These findings extend theoretical understanding of organizational coordination and commitment in volunteer-intensive event settings and offer practical guidance for festival organizers seeking to enhance operational outcomes through effective leadership practices and volunteer engagement strategies.

Abstract

The rapid integration of generative AI in digital creative workflows has raised questions about technology acceptance and artistic identity. This cross-sectional explanatory survey investigated how generative AI acceptance (GAA) and perceived artistic authenticity (PAA) jointly predict creative intentions (CI) among digital artists and illustrators in Jakarta. Data were collected from 200 participants across all five administrative areas of Jakarta between March and June 2026, using a 15-item Likert-scale questionnaire. Multiple linear regression with heteroscedasticity-consistent standard errors (HC3) served as the primary analytic approach. Both GAA (B = 0.480, β = 0.487, 95% CI [0.364, 0.596], p < .001) and PAA (B = 0.243, β = 0.231, 95% CI [0.114, 0.372], p < .001) were positively and significantly associated with creative intentions. The full model explained 38.7% of variance in CI (adjusted R² = 0.368), with both predictors accounting for an additional 36.8% of variance beyond control variables (ΔR² = 0.368, F-change = 57.88, p < .001), while the control-only model showed negligible explanatory power. These findings demonstrate that acceptance attitudes and authenticity perceptions function as distinct and additive correlates of AI-assisted creative intentions, contributing to the understanding of technology acceptance in artistic practice. Practical implications for art education and community training are discussed.

Abstract

Traditional music depends on continuing participation, yet identification with a cultural community and pride in its heritage may relate differently to young people’s involvement. This study distinguishes cultural belonging from heritage pride and examines their associations with behavioral participation among youth in Poso Regency, Indonesia. A cross-sectional survey dataset contained 180 respondents aged 18–30 years, with recorded survey dates from February to June 2026. Cultural belonging and heritage pride were measured using six items each, while participation was represented by eight frequency items referring to the preceding 12 months. Spearman correlations and ordinal logistic regression were calculated from item-level responses. Cultural belonging and heritage pride correlated positively with participation (ρ = .530 and .460, respectively; both p < .001). After adjustment for age, the female indicator, and coded location, a one-point increase in the mean belonging score was associated with higher participation odds of 2.62 (95% confidence interval 1.76–3.91); the corresponding odds ratio for pride was 2.13 (1.41–3.22). The proportional-odds restriction was not rejected, and supplementary analyses retained both associations. A standardized comparison did not establish a difference between their coefficients. The findings support treating belonging and pride as complementary correlates of traditional music participation. Community initiatives may combine opportunities for social inclusion with engagement in cultural knowledge and performance, while longitudinal research is needed to assess directionality and program effects.

Abstract

Independent learning requires university students to initiate and sustain academic work without continuous external supervision, yet procrastination remains a common behavioral barrier. Procrastination has often been explained through motivational, personality, and conscious self-regulatory perspectives, whereas the combined contribution of habitual behavioral regulation and deliberate self-control has received less attention, and it is unclear whether self-control explains additional variance once established study habits are considered. This study examined whether study habit strength and self-control predict procrastination during independent learning and whether self-control provides incremental explanatory power. A cross-sectional survey was conducted from January to March 2026 among 240 undergraduate students recruited through purposive sampling across seven faculties at Universitas Negeri Semarang, Indonesia. Hierarchical multiple regression entered age, sex, semester, and daily independent study duration first, followed by study habit strength and then self-control. Both study habit strength (r = −.49) and self-control (r = −.59) correlated negatively with procrastination. Habit strength increased explained variance by 24.0% (ΔR2 = .240), and self-control added a further 18.2% (ΔR2 = .182), so that the final model explained 43.3% of the variance; both remained unique negative predictors (β = −.31 and β = −.46, respectively), whereas the control variables were not significant. These findings distinguish automatic regulation through habit from deliberate regulation through self-control and indicate that the two operate in a complementary way. Programs aimed at reducing procrastination should therefore combine habit formation with support for self-control, although the cross-sectional design precludes causal conclusions.
